Arrhov Frick Arkitektkontor . + baunetz
Arrhov Frick was given the assignment to redesign ArkDes´ exhibition halls, which amongst other things, displays ArkDes Collection that depict 150 years of Swedish architecture and design history. The Architect Duo developed a number of strategies,rather than a complete concept, that would form the new museum.
Arrhov Frick choose to make architecture of existing materials, to utilize the the vast amount of steel, wood, and glass already available in the exhibition halls. These materials were repurposed to create new, dynamic structures, offering a fresh perspective on the collection. Between 70-100% of all material has been repurposed, first dismantled and then reconstructed into new forms.
Arrhov Frick´s vision is viewing the museum as a studio: an open space where various activities can coexist and cooperate: education, workshops and installations. A place where one can explore history, but also develop new opportunities for objects, buildings and urban development.
